(((((((Lisa))))))) Thanks for visiting! You know I always like hearing from Science Girl! Especially with that accent!
I think I've been stuck between choice 1 and 2, I'm trying for two, but I've been getting stuck in the mud. A challenge in the desert! I just have no get up and go, and I know that is really hurting me in a lot of ways. I think I will take a dose of motivation, an get this room cleaned up today! I may try to get in a round of gold tomorrow. I suck, but the weather is supposed to be nice, then pretty cool on Sunday. The other thing I should do is work on the model railroad. The thing with it is that it is semi permanent, mounted to the walls in the garage. And I have the nagging feeling that I am not going to be in the house. Or the garage. But, damn, that's self fulfilling prophesy stuff. Ick. I'm sure if it was someone else I'd give some advice, I just feel like, hmmm, pants?
Radical 180s? I don't even have a clue! That is going to take some thinking. I'm not liking this right now!
I think the masked man was Engineering Man! He's faster than a spinning crankshaft! (I don't know if there's even such a thing as one of those! LOL!)
I'm hoping that getting your diagnosis and subsequent bloodletting will help with the get up and go thing, but if there is stuff you can do before that happens that would be great- if only to get YOU feeling like something's happening.
I love the room getting cleaned up. (Bedroom??) And the golf plan. I'm playing indoor golf with H on Sunday, and will be thinking of you- it's a simulator, so we could even play the course you play. I don't think you can be more pants than me at it- I can only hit the ball about 30 yards at a time!
So even though you're thinking you're not going to be in the house, I am going to ask tomorrow whether the room is done, or whether you played golf. There's no escape!
Maybe we could leave the radical 180s until you've got into more of a GALing habit? If you don't feel like anything radical right now, I'd leave it. To be honest, sorting the bedroom out might be a radical 180 in itself- I want to see before and after pics!!
Hope your day is going well Jeff! Oh, and I hope I'm not being too direct Engineer Guy!! (Making a vulnerable face now )
L.xx
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart. And you'll never walk alone.
Hey Jeff, I cant understand the time difference, I dont know it its tommorow there, or yesterday, or if you are in bed... but how are you getting on clearing out the bedroom? And what could yuo do to shock your W, as Lisa says? Get a reaction out of her? Do something amazing? Change your clothes in some way to make her notice you? Get a new haircut? Leave a pretty spray of flowers in her room on her dressing table?? Nothing strenuous! I thikn I asked you this before, about romancing her in small ways, but I dont remember if you answered or not. With the compliments, do you tell her she looks/smells nice? I guess I'm wondering if you make her feel like a woman, the one you wanted to marry? And would it/does it have any effect on her!?
Sorry if I am "probing" :-)

It's still yesterday here! Not quite dark yet! If I am thinking right, we are 7 hours behind you right now, eight when you go to summer time.
Cleaning the room is progressing. Not a lot of fun, but I am getting there.
How could I shock my wife? I don't know! Flowers didn't do much, tried that! My hair is pretty short, so it is hard to change that up much! Clothes, I'll have to think about that. Maybe I'll have to get a new outfit, and wear it to work one day.
I think romancing her would probably be a big backfire. She has made it pretty clear that she is not interested. At all. I will listen to any ideas, but I really think it would backfire to try much in that direction.
You are not probing Ali! I appreciate your thoughts!
Jeff, CLEAR THE BEDROOM!!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!! It is not good for your health and well being to live in all that clutter. Come on now, one area at a time. Get some boxes, label them Keep, Toss,and Put Elsewhere and do a quick sort. Then go back and do a more thorough one. Only keep what you absolutely love or cannot live without. Be ruthless. It is only stuff, and stuff is not important in life.

More hugs for me! Lol.
